Daubert VCI Films with BioNatur are designed for real-world disposal scenarios. They will biodegrade in a municipal landfill and do not need to be sent to a compost facility, or they can be recycled, with no restrictions.
If they are sent to a landfill the film rapidly biodegrades into water and soil within a few years, without generating harmful chemicals or microplastics. Or they can be recycled with any other polyethylene-based products, without the need for segregation or separation.
Advantage: Whether you want to recycle used film or dispose of it in a landfill, Daubert VCI films with BioNatur are designed to suit your needs. Since most plastics in the U.S. end up in landfills, this characteristic is highly beneficial.- No Microplastics: Daubert VCI films do not breakdown into harmful microplastics or chemicals that might harm the environment.
- No Special Conditions Needed: Does not require expensive polymers that must be separated and sent to a composting facility.
- Faster Breakdown: Decomposes within a few years, unlike conventional PE film, which takes centuries and may never disappear.
- Long Shelf Life: Some compostable VCI films start to break down in storage or in use. Daubert VCI films with BioNatur are completely stable and will not break down until they are disposed of in a landfill.
- Meets EU Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste
- ASTM D5511 biodegradability testing has shown 99.7% biodegradation in 1,697 days (<5 years) under anaerobic conditions.
- ASTM D5526 biodegradability testing demonstrates up to 36.6% biodegradation in 391 days under landfill conditions.
